Results/Recap
We had two Walkabout events in the AMA season and one winner, Jorge Rimblas. With two out-of-this-world rounds in the -20s, Jorge bests fellow Minnesotan Shawn Brown by 2 strokes. Shawn had the best result on the hard course of Thethys Station with a -24. AMA season 1 champion Mick Cullen came in 3rd after scoring the best of the field on the easy course with a -25. You can see Jorge’s full scorecard below. Join in on the tournaments by checking out #Tournament-Info section on the Walkbout Discord page.
Thank you again to Walkabout for being an incredible sponsor of the AMA and for creating so many fun courses that make the winter months fly by!

The best virtual reality mini golf game, Walkabout Mini Golf, will once again provide another virtual scoring opportunity for AMA points for 2023. We wanted to give an additional opportunity for people to earn points once all of the in-person mini golf events finished up for the 2023 season.
